Can a father stop the mother from moving out of state with their child?
My husband and I have a friend who has a 5 y/o daughter. He see's her just about every weekend. He picks her up and drop's her off at her home. He pays child support. Nothing is through the courts it is all verbal between them.
His ex-wife just informed him the other day that she plans to move with the child to California...they live in PA. She seems to be on the fast track and would live to move within the next couple of months. She plans on moving along with her boyfriend and they will stay with an aunt of the boyfriend. They have no jobs secured out there. They just want to move to California.
He is devastated. They told him they thought he would want to move to California but he has a job here and can't afford to just pick up and start over.
Does he have any rights? Can he get custody of his daughter?

he would have to give permission to have the child moved out of state.
he really needs to talk to his lawyer ASAP ..

If there is a court order it should say something about moving out of state.
Most of the time a judge will rule against it unless mom can prove that it's for the benefit of the child...taking the child somewhere where they have no jobs...not so much.
He needs to contact an attorney NOW. It will be harder once she's gone...

He can get a court order, will she be successful hard to say very fact specific; who can afford to pay for a lawyer and so on
Best bet is to hire a lawyer to file in family law court for a visitation order, once that order is set she can not move out of state with the child unless the court approves, a lawyer is best for this, if he cannot afford one he can make the request himself in family law court for a visitation order to be issued

Yes, but he'll have to do it through the courts. He can ask a judge to stop her from moving, or at least to allow the child to travel to see him.

california is broke.
yes he can call the cops and have her arrested for KIDNAPPING
she must have his permission to cross state lines or it becomes a FEDERAL crime.
